DIR. A. p. SNODDY
Pays The Last Debt of Nature at
San Antonio, Tex.

News reached this city this morn
ing of the death of DIR. A. p. Snoddy,
of Lamonte, at San Antonio,
Texas, last Saturday morning.
Deceased had been an invalid from
consumption for some time, and went
to San antonio the first of last May
with the hope of getting better. His
hopes were doomed to disappointment,
and as stated above his death took
place last Saturday. His wife.
who had been telegraphed for, did
not reach San Antonio until a few
hours after his death, and her grief
was, of course, rendered more poig-
nant.
DIR. Snoddy was well-known
throughout, not only the county but
the state, and was one of the earlier
settlers. He was born in Franklin
county, March "a, 1887. He re-
moved to Pettis county in 1S45, and
for many years has been one of the
leading physicians of the county. He
was married in 1868 to Miss frankie
Felix, daughter of DIR. w. d. Felix,
and sister of Will Felix, deceased,
formerly of this city. In the bust
ness interests of Lamonte, DR..
was prominently identi-
fed and at the time of his
death was one of the largest share
holders in that bank of Lamonte.
He was also member of the Chris
tan church. He leaves no children.
The remains were met at Greenridge
this morning and conveyed to La
monte where the funeral took place
this afternoon. DR.. Snoddy's many
friends will be grieved to learn of his
death and will sympathize with his
wife in her bereavement.

To Be Paid at Last.

During the great strike upon the
Missouri Pacific road in 1885, the
governor, it will be remembered,
ordered out several companies of the
St. Louis militia and stationed them
at Centretown to be handy in case a
riot should occur at Sedalia, where
trouble was daily threatened and
feared. The bold militiamen remain
ed at Centretown about a week, no
event of any particular Importance
transpiring, except the wonnding of
an efficient officer, who shot himself
with his own revolver while on guard
duty, and they were ordered back to
st. Louis. Many of the militia lost
their positions in st. Louis by reason
of the enforced absence on state duty,
for which they received no pay, as
there was no provision made to pay
them by the 23d general assembly,
which was in session at the time.
During the last session a bill appro-
priating 81, 500 Tor that purpose was
passed, and the acknowledgement yes
terday forwarded the necessary papers
to St. Louis, by which all the men
who were on the Centretown trip will
be paid for their seryices.-Jeferson

MINOR MEMORANDA.


MINOR MEMORANDA.
The ride up and back was breezy
and delightful.
The stonemason, Ogle, has put
in fine foundation for the church.
The Sedalia band contributed
greatly to the enjoyment of the day.
The letters and figures, "Sacred
Heart, 1887" are cut into one face of
the stone.
The return trip was begun at
7:45 p. m, and the train arrived at
Sedalia at $50 p. m.
That was fine dinner, and we'll
served, which was spread in
the courthouse for the visitors.
Fathers Dalton, Hanley and
Sherry, came down on the train with
Fathers Murphy and Dickman.
Some of the Sedalians are expert
swimmers, and Clear Lakes deep
waters were vexed for an hour or two
with their plunges and diversions.
The excursion train cost S145,
and the band s45. The committee in
charge report that they will come out
just about even, with little to
spare.
Company D., Third regiment,
Kansas City, was not able to be pres
ent, owing, it is alleged, to lack of
funds, to defray the expenses of the
trip.
When the procession started from
the courthouse, after dinner, FriemePs
band played most sweetly that beauti-
full hymn, "Nearer my God to
Thee"
Much of the success of the ex-
cursion was due to Division Superin-
tendent Howard Parke and Travelling
Engineer Robert Lister, who went
along.

HAYSELnEN VS.. CASTLE.

EDITOR BULLETIN:--Mr. w. r.
Castle is reported in the San Fran
cisco Examiner" of the 10th of
August to have made these state
ments:-
"Mr. Castle does not think that
Gibson has personally picked many
of the plums, but has let others do
the gathering, his precious son-in-
law, Hayselden among the number.
" If you will take a run down to
Los Gatos, in Santa Clara county,
said Mr.. Castle, Il think you could
see where a good many Hawaiian
dollars have gone. Hayseldcn's
parents live there, and their fnan-
cial circumstances have improved
since the plundering commenced at
a rate not all warranted by their
business ability push or opportuni-
ties.
If Mr.. Castle has made those
statements he has uttered a wilful
falsehood; if not, | hope he has
manliness enough to repudiate them
as publicly as they were credited to
have been made by him.

the mate dog that was fastened on
deck. The mate assisted the two
ashore, and was willing to serve
them with as much dog as they
wanted. Pretty soon Officer Crabb
boarded the Lillian, and demanded
the canine in question.
"Who does the dog belong to-"
enquired the mate.
81 don't know" said Crabb,
"but | want him."
Mate-''Well, you can't have
him."
Crabb-"Pll take him."
Mate-"Let me see you do it"
Crabb-"I have an order from
the Deputy"
Mate-'What's he to me? The
fellow who takes that dog must
prove the ownership, and pay me
S. for keeping him."
Crabb-"He came here this morn
ing"
Mate-''IIe has been here for a
week."
Crabb-"I don't believe it,"
Mate-''Do you call me liar?"
and Crabb walked off for REINFORCE
ments.
